The Clown produced I signed ruminant made by Bowman to Chief Stiles ot Elmira. in which pruotier dectaredthat he had premeditated Ike murder of hi: wile which was the result of trouble extending over a long period. He had taken ex- ception to his wife wearing a ring and a. watch she had received from a man before he had paid attention: to her a few yarn ago. His wife: however, paid little attention to his objection and told him that he was Counsel Addams Jury H. J. Sims, K.C., Crown counsel, stated that it was hig purpose to show that the prisoner was able to understand what was going on and that he was on trial tor his life. He said further: "It is well known that a man is presumed to be sane until he has been proven otherwise. As to the state ot mind or the accused you have seen him in the box and ob- served him. You have heard the evidence of various persons who have declared that he has given in- telligent answers to questions. Their evidence shows that his condition is not such that he is not able to understand that he is on trial. ' Y. H. Hamn. counsel tor the defense. said :“You as a jury after here, must conclude that this man has had one object. that is to end his lite. It has been shown that ever since his early dars he has been suffering from a neurotic con- dition which developed later into dementia precox. a progressive dis- ease. On July 25 Dr. English. the alienist ot the Ontario Hospital tor the insane, a crown witness, whom you have heard, made an examin- ation ot the prisoner. He says the man undoubtedly is insane.

Justice Wright reply- ing that this was not the duty of the crown, the onus resting on the detemie. He called the point raised a side issue claiming that the jury had nothing to do with it. Condition Not Improved Evidence ot Dr. Fisher who treat- ed Bowman at St. Joseph's hospital at London was heard, on Monday. Witness said he could see no im. provement in condition of prisoner since last May. After several exam- inntions he_ooneiudedutttrt prisoner was abnormal and suggested that :tlitarnilr would be well advised to tor insane. When questioned further Dr. Fisher declared prisoner had detective Judgement, a mental de- terioation. delusions and spoke of peculiar feelings and pains. He was depressed and had suicidal tendenc- ies. He said that Bowman had a diseased mind or dementia precox which comes in early life and is incurable.

He wool indifferent altho he seemed "rot, He looked down on the floor and did not answer my questions. 1 ask-1 ed him what he was thinking about and he started to cry.
